Novak Djokovic has no big expectations for his performance at the Australian Open. Six-time champion Djokovic said he is not sure how the elbow will react, which has caused him problems in recent months. The Serb did not undergo surgery, and the decision to play in Melbourne was taken at the last minute.

I`m not 100 percent rebuilt, but I`m at a level I can compete at. Everyday things get better. I do not know how the elbow will behave during the tournament. Even if I was completely rebuilt, after six months without playing, you never know how you will feel on the court, Djokovic said. Novak also commented on how he worked with his new coach, Radek Supanek, who, along with Andre Agassi, worked with him. The Serb explained that his staff had made changes to his serve to reduce the pressure on the elbow:I feel less energy, but I`m more effective. I can not wait to try out my new service.




The former number 1 in the world has six titles in Milburn, but hopes for more success there:Fire, passion and love for the sport are still in me. I have great support from family and relatives and other people around the world. I feel young. Djokovic is placed under number 14 at the Australian Open and in the first round will face American Donald Young. I know I`m still capable of defeating the best in the world. I believe in my own strength. If I get to the desired level of performance physically and mentally, I know I actually have a good chance of getting away in the tournament, `he added.

The Serb revealed that he was using Federer for inspiration:What Roger and Rafa did last year shows that age is just a figure, especially in the case of Roger. He is a great example of someone who can take care of himself, knows how to prepare himself to be in peak shape at the right time. Win two Grand Slam tournaments. Who could have foreseen this after six months of absence? So everything is possible. I do not know how my body will react. What I think is how to direct energy, and so far everything is going in the right direction.
